really getting sick of people who aren’t trans women saying “y’all find out JK Rowling is a terf every three months…. we already fucking knew” like. sorry, but it didn’t stop being a big deal that the most well known author in the fucking world literally belongs to a hate group dedicated to eliminating trans women’s rights. that’s a big fucking deal, and people are allowed to talk and post about it when it happens.

“y’all find out JKR is a terf every two months!!!” is just a way to dismiss trans women’s worries about her. yeah we already knew, but she’s STILL doing it and it’s HURTING us. but you wouldn’t know because y’all don’t actually give a shit about trans women.

stop saying shit like this.

y’all don’t realise like. JK Rowling being a terf isn’t like a fun example of this annoying “boomer” being out of touch and politically incorrect; JK Rowling is the MOST WELL KNOWN AUTHOR in the WORLD and she is now actively telling people they should join the terf movement. this is going to cause trans women to die. she’s already buddy-buddy with politicians who have the power to cause trans-related legislation.

JK Rowling being openly a terf and advocating for terf politics and policies on her Twitter is going to have real world effects. this isn’t dumb fandom drama. this isn’t “read another book”. trans women are BEING HURT and are GOING TO GET HURT because of this. i have already had an uptick in terfs in my inbox/notes after this. this isn’t funny. this isn’t meaningless. this is NEWS and it’s SCARY so stop fucking joking about it.

Also people saying “JK Rowling is being transphobic” isn’t people “rediscovering she’s a terf” it’s people saying “LOOK SHE’S STILL DOING THIS WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS” like this woman isn’t going to go away if you just ignore her. She’s not going to go away if we stop talking about her and Harry Potter altogether. She’s still wealthy and famous and has influence on the world. If we want to counter her influence we need to be active about it, not just ignore her and hope she goes away.

What I love about this is its acknowledgment that Jason had no intentions at all

this is all 100% true but it always made me really mad that Chidi’s “crime” was having a severe anxiety disorder like he needed understanding and therapy, sending him to the Bad Place for something he had literally no control over was incredibly fucked up

thedreadvampy

I feel like a less-surface theme of the show is that they’re all in a situation where they have been forced into bad patterns by forces outside their control - Chidi has SEVERE anxiety; Eleanor was forced by abuse and neglect to adopt a self-centered attitude from early childhood and, like many people with traumatic pasts, responds by not dealing with difficult emotions; Jason was very overtly raised in an environment where he got no education and all his models for behaviour were criminal and/or self-destructive; and Tahani has been raised in an environment where everything is performative and she is shot down for any genuine expression of unhappiness or non-material want. Just as Michael and Janet are made one way but changed by their experiences, the moral of the story is that things outside your control shape you but you can move away from them. That could easily be really insulting, in a sort of ‘just get over it’ way, but the idea isn’t that they change solely because they decide to be better - all six of them change because their circumstances change and give them the OPPORTUNITY to be better, because they’re finally given the support system they lack.

I like The Good Place because the whole show has since day 1 been predicated on the idea that black and white moral judgements made in a vacuum are bullshit, and that moral choices are informed by things outside our control, whether that be education, behaviour modelling, unfair treatment or mental health issues. That doesn’t mean we aren’t responsible for our actions but it DOES mean we have to understand morality in the context of people’s varied experiences AND asks for the possibility that if their environment is improved, their ability to function as moral agents also improves.
